All three companies seem to belong to the same group which is the Holm Productions. Their pin code, location and the website footer is the same. The report from the Better Business Bureau also lists all companies under the same head i.e Rets, Inc. with the contact person being the same person. The BBB has nothing good to say about this company, as is the case with the majority of the Product Assemlbing companies. The number of employees in the company seem to be just the one person Mr. Greg Holm who is the proprietor. Is this at all possible for a business? Having just one person in employemt?.
The description of the crafts is deceptively simple. The keychains and the bookamarks are not as simple to make as they may sound, if the feedback from the people is to be believed. The suggested income is in tune of several hundred dollars if you can finish 3 batches and above in a week’s time. This is an unrealisctic goal for most of the assembling people. 3 in a month is a more likely standard and that too after you after you have got the hang of making the craft.

This website actually lists four product-assembling companies. Kalas Crafts, Gussies’s Gifts, Hands on Hobbies and Makin It Easy.
We have covered Making It Easy in another post of ours. As for the other three companies, information is listed below.

As you will notice none of them actually have a physical address that they give out.
Some of the assemble at home companies claim that this is for security reasons. The only security reasons that we can think of is that they do not want people looking for their money back when they feel that they have been scammed. We feel that this is not the ideal conditions under which the business should operate. If they are continuously facing a problem of people being dissatisfied with the company and demanding their money back, then they should be a change in the policy.
Why hide behind post box addresses? Wanting to stay anonymous from their own workers does not instill a great deal of trust in people. If their credibility is nothing to doubt, product assembling companies should list company details like as any other business.

This brings to mind a great example of another product-assembling web site that goes by the name of Magical Gifts or New England Crafters that actually put up a list of the people who are currently working for them.
When dealing with any of the companies that do not list their physical address make sure that you contact them and ask for additional information. Clarify each detail regarding the work involved along with a request for more information on the people who are currently working for them.
Do not be embarrassed about asking questions like how and where the market and sell their craft items. This after all is the backbone of any product as sending company. They are actually supposed to be selling the products that you are making for them. Any Legitimate company will have a satisfactory answer for this. If they do not then please be very wary of this company as they probably have something to hide.
We have not found any substantial information or record of anybody working with the companies listed below.

If you have any experience with any of these companies or know someone who has, these share your experience with us by commenting on this post. It will help us and others reading it gained more insight.

This is an assembling company that makes miniature crafts like doll houses and jewelry boxes. There are a few things that strike you when you read the copy on their website. They claim that they never charge for supplies for additional batches once you have paid the $50.00 registration fee. Once you buy their start-up-kit, you can finish your batch of ten items to get paid $50.00 for it. Once your batch gets approved they automatically send you the supplies for your next batch without charging you extra.
The second thing that grabs your attention is a question in the frequently asked Questions where they list a physical address in Orlando as their office address. The invite you to come and visit their office if you can before 4:00 PM. They also mention that the keep the products on display in their office so you can come and physically examined them before deciding to work with the company.
Now, we haven’t been able to actually locate someone who has taken up on their offer, but on the front of things this makes a forthright offer, Provided they do actually hold an office at the given address and entertain people to come and pay them a visit if they are interested in working for them.

The money back guarantee is also slightly different. They offer to refund half of your start-up registration cost which was $50.00 whether you to or do not use that kit provided to you to make your product. Which means that if you decide not to work for them on receiving the start-up kit, you might as well give it a go and at least try before you send it back. You will get the same money back whether you use nothing all of all of the raw materials sent to you.

We do not have much information about this company apart from what we have read on the web site. Kindly look into it and investigate any home business enterprise before you decide to take part in it. We feel that for any business you should be able to find people who are working for them successfully. Locate these people and you will know that the company and the work that they provide is real and genuine.
If you have had any experience with this company all know someone who has please feel free to post your experiences here as a comment. All input is appreciated.

Extract from the FAQ:

I live in Orlando. May I come to your office?
YES. Our offices are at 915 West Lake Holden Point, (formerly 37th Street), in Orlando. We are in a residential home off South Orange Blossom Trail. We are here Monday through Friday from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm. We have samples of all of our items on display in our office, as well as the kits and materials. We like you to come in before 4:00 pm so that we will have plenty of time to spend with you. We also request that you call before coming to our office.
May I drop off my items in person?
YES. If your items are in our office by 10:00 am we will have them inspected and, when they are accepted, your check will by ready by 4:00 pm that day. If you drop something off after 10:00 am it may be delayed until 4:00 pm the next day.

Sometimes people decide after looking at the kit that it is not for them, or that they do not have the patience for miniatures. Go ahead and try it anyway. If you decide you do not wish to make these products you may return what you have not used of the kit and you will be mailed a refund of 1/2 of your deposit, deducting 1/2 for restocking, packing, and clerical expenses. The refund is the same if you use all the materials or return the kit in untouched condition. You might just as well give it a try.

The following are there products:

Dollhouse Gift Box - This box is made of cherry wood that is about the thickness of a dime. It is about 1″ high, 1″ wide, and about 3/4″ deep. It has no drawers, but opens into two lined compartments, and a lid that is also lined. You will receive wood, Elmer’s glue, pattern, knife (to cut the wood), velvet ribbon for the compartment lining, and complete directions. Everything is provided to make ten boxes except for scissors and a ruler. The wood is not precut. Extra material is included in case you make a mistake. We pay $5.00 for each box.

These are done in sets of 400 bows, so that you will make $100 each time you send a unit of bows to us. We know that not everybody likes to work with wood.

This company has the following three products, Eye Glass Case, Cd Totes and Cd Stands. The first two products Involve stitching and sewing work. The supplies are sent by the company except for the threads. They claim that you can make more of a thousand dollars every month making either of these products.

There is no obvious record or information available of someone having successfully worked for this company.
Whenever you are intending to work for a crafting company please keep the following points in mind:
Number one, the company should offer enough information and details about itself and establish itself as legitimate and active business. Number two, it should provide enough testimonials from people that have worked successfully for them and are still doing so. Number three, all of your communication with them should be clear and you should not get the feeling that they are being evasive of trying to hide something from you. If it sounds too good to be true all of it sounds a little suspicious Then trust your instincts and move away from the company and their home based job offer.

If you have any information or an experience that you would like to share with us regarding this home based assembly company kindly post your comments .

The following is the basic information available on the web site of this company.

There are forty eight pieces in a set, and we pay $70.56 per set. A maximum production of five sets per week is allowed, which would equal $352.80 for the week.

It contains a finished CD case with enough supplies to assemble your first sample case. Also included is the pattern and our easy to follow instructions.

ARTISAN CORPORATION OF AMERICA

Artisan Corporation Of America has been around for a long time. What we can discern from their website is that they pay you for making earrings from home. The website copy reads the same as many other along with it.
What we find a little strange about Artisan Corporation Of America is that it says there are no deadlines in making the finished product. Is this possible for a company that is trying to run a business in craft making? What happens to their orders and sales if nobody has any fixed period to finish the products? Don’t they have a supply to meet, dealers to supply, buyers to sell to? How can they possibly know when what is coming in if everyone is making stuff on random times? I sure would like an answer to this one. Anyone? Please post below.
They also say that the earrings are easy to make. As per the reviews of the people who have tried to make the earrings, they are not exactly all of that. They do require skill and practice to make.
It also says “Finally, if you decide making jewelry is not for you, just return the complete Basic Jewelry Kit within 14 days, unused and intact, and we will refund your purchase price, minus $11.97 for shipping, handling and restocking.” Which means that you have to decide that you do not want to work for the Artisan Corporation Of America just by staring at the kit. If you actually try to make it and use something out of the starter kit material, they are not going to refund any of your money. Not much of a guarantee in my opinion.

Here is what a few people had to say about this company:
One such person who used the starter kit from the Artisin corporation of America said that the earrings actually took her two hours to complete round the first time. This person also says that although her samples were near perfect her work kept getting rejected. It is always hard in the case like this to see whether this was the result of deliberate unfair action of company, as many people claim is the case with a lot of product assemble companies, or just that craftsman ship on the part of the worker was lacking.
Another person reports that they called up the offices of Artisan Corporation of America and asked forr details such as the physical address. The company refused to provide these details claiming that it was for security reasons. This sounds slightly strange. What possible security threat could they be facing when all they do is craft business? Maybe they meant that they do not want disgruntled people who have not been able to get through to come looking for their money. If such is the case then they this is not the ideal work and hiring practise, for this or ANY business. There are definitely other ways to recruit people to work from home while making crafts for you other than getting strangers to register online by paying a moderate sum of money.
Another user of reports that they tried to get in touch with the company for additional details and the company did not get back to them with any information, while another reports that the response was very unsatisfactory on the grounds of pleasentness and helpfulness.

This company seems to have a satisfactory record with the better business bureau . Although there are several complaints against them online in forums and blogs the record with the better business bureau for shows them to have a satisfactory status.

Program Overview – This is what the website has to say about their offer
Artisan offers you an opportunity to become a successful handcrafted jewelry producer. The guidelines on which our partnership is based are as follows:
• No Schedule
Some companies in our industry may block your production by requiring small initial purchase orders that increase in small dollar increments over time. In this arrangement, you are obligated to correctly fulfill your current purchase order prior to getting your next incremental increase. Not so when you work with Artisan. Artisan lets you determine your own jewelry production schedule – how much product you want to make and when.

14-day trial offer
Finally, if you decide making jewelry is not for you, just return the complete Basic Jewelry Kit within 14 days, unused and intact, and we will refund your purchase price, minus $11.97 for shipping, handling and restocking.

Their start-up cost is also relatively pretty low and they seem to offer a good discount policy. They refund almost the entire registration fee minus the shipping cost, which is around $4.00.
Money Back Guarantee Not Unconditional… There is however, a catch to this money back guarantee. You will need to clarify with them whether whether they refund money for only unused kits or do you need to send back the kit in an untouched state for the guarantee to be valid.
The Easy Bookmark… Another product is the bookmark, which is made out of twisted braid of threads. As easy as this product might look, it is not. Threading the strings together and tying them in a perfect knot has proven to be a difficult job for many.
Free Unlimited Raw Materials… They also offer to send you the materials for making the bookmark completely free of cost, claiming not to charge for any raw materials what so ever. And they also offer to refund your registration fee with the first finished batch. The pay scale for these products are listed below in the excerpt of the description taken from the website of Valleriehattery.tk. The third and the final product is a refrigerator magnet, again claiming it to be a simple product that requires no sewing.
Buy Your Own Raw Materials And Take Your Time… This company allows you to buy your own raw materials. The also do not put any time limit on the duration required to complete the project. We always find this quality strange as we feel that any company who is in a serious business of selling crats to customers or supplying them wholesalers. One would expect them to have a time frame in which they require their workers to finish the product.
Feedback from people is… The people who have interacted with Valeriehattery seem to be mostly satisfied with the company. What we find pleasant about this organization is their relatively very low start-up cost. They also send in a sample before and if you so wish for $5.00. Please be aware that while people do get paid by certain product ascending companies it is not something that is substantiated or sustained for a very long period of time. Also getting paid once or even twice by a company does not mean that it is legit. If you are looking to make serious and adequate income from crafting work from home me suggest you look at your options to set up a home based business of your own. You are not going to make a lot of money doing assemble jobs at home.
